GEN. GRANTS LOVE LETTERS.
A Short Chat with Col. Fred Grant-An
Interesting Diary.

Interesting Diary
CHANGING to meet Col Fred Grant the
other day 1 asked him regarding the vol
umes OF his fathers unpublished diaries
and papers which il has been announced
he was engaged upon for publication. A
casual inquiry soon revealed the fact that
the paragraph in question was some
what pIemature-by about a few years,
at least.
The only literary work. said Col.
Grant, ''upon which | may be said TO be
engaged concerning my father is this:
Every day devote an hour or more to
taking down my mothers "reminiscences
of him. These mostly relate to incidents
and events in my fathers life during his
tour around the world, and which were
not embodied in Mr.. John Russell Young's
description of that journey. My father
never related those incidents to any one,
and my mother now tells them to me for
the first time to anybody. They are,
many of them, exceedingly interesting, be-
ing purely of n personal character, and
full of what is called spice have now
nearly 1900 foolscap pages filled with
memorandums of these "reminiscences of
my mother. She has also dictated to me
IA great many things in fathers early life
which are not known to the public, and
has given me, too, several important
documents never published as yet"
What Is IL your purpose to do with
these | asked.
Il do not know whether the public will
ever want these off hand "reminiscences
but they will be of value to my children
and for their sake am chiefly doing the
collecting and editing of them. Father
was in the habit of telling mother nlmer
Gus things about men and events which
Were never impaired to others. Many of
them express his opinions of men and

his closest friends. IL is possible that I
may at some time publish these recol-
lections of mothers, but certainly not at
present. You know my contract with the
Websters provides that | shall not publish
anything about father until May, 1889, or
three years from last May. What I shall
do when this date expires 1 cannot at
present say"
"Did your father leave with your moth
er any other valuable papers besides the
documents you speak OFF,
YES, | have diary left by him to

Ii is now fairly established that the

often proliterous ON the hands and face,
can be easily removed by small doses Of
sulphate of magnesia taken internally.

to this extraordinary fact. Several chill

cured. NJ. Aubers cites the case Of q

Ten years ago he was the pet of the town,

greatest boast was that he drank nothing
but champagne; he was reckless in the
matter of clothes, wore vast quantities of
jewelry and eloricd n being considered a
man about town. The Wall street broker
could have been detected in those days at

hat yellow gloves, tif,ilt fitting clothes,
swaggcr, Us. .urance and carriage stamped
him everywhere. lie 5vaggcrctl into bar
rooms with an air OF en- underlined prince
Of the blood, and talked stocks in public
places unfortunately. Everybody called him
Charley, Jimmy, Harry or Tommy, and
nothing pleased him more than to have his
name associated in ever so slight a way
with that of a woman of the burlesque
stage. He was on the whole nervy, reck-
less and generous to fault, and often a
bold anti courageous gambler, but there is
no doubt he was a tremendous nuisance
about town, and outside of Wall street he
was the subject of criticism the import of
which he never suspected.
In those days they all made money on
the street, for the lambs had not been

wise. They thought that their gold mime
would last forever, hence the rush and
scramble to see who could spend the most
money and make the greatest show. do
not know whether it was the result of
hard times or an era of good sense, but it
is fact that this noisy and dashing type
of Wall street man has almost entirely
disappeared and New York congratulates
itself accordingly. The brokers are now
in most instances quiet and undemonstra-
tive men, who are not distinguished by
their manner of attire from other men
